KLoveMe here! (Or just plain K.) This is my fifth fanific. Just search 'KLoveMe' to find my others. Enjoy!

The girl inhaled deeply the scents of clay, pain, and graphite. The scents of the Scrubbley craft fair. The scents were familliar to her, growing up with an artist. Her brother. The one who mysteriously dissapeared three years ago. But she wasn't here because of him. She was here because of the author, David Rain.

Then she caught sight of the red hair.

She heard one single sound.

Hrrr.

The girl walked quickly in the direction of the sound and found the booth she was looking for. Pennykettle's Clay Dragons.

"Hi! Can I help you?" The red-haired woman at the table asked her with a smile.

The girl returned the smile. "Hi. My name's Jane Ritz. Are you Elizabeth Pennykettle?"

"That's me."

"I've seen your website. Is it true David Rain used to be your tenant?"

Elizabeth's smile wavered. "Yes... why?"

Jane dug around in her bag and held up a book with a white polar bear on the cover. Her copy of David's White Fire. "It's my favorite book, so naturally I reseached him. Your website, , came up first. I need to speak with him."

"I'm sorry, but he doesn't talk to fans much. He's pretty busy with his wife and daughter."

"I understand, Mrs. Pennykettle-"

"Liz."

Jane corrected herself. "Liz. But you see, this has nothing to do with White Fire, or even Snigger for that matter. This has to do with this." She put the book back in her back and took out her notebook. It was open on a page with a scary accurate drawing of a polar bear with three lines on its forehead.

Liz snatched the notebook from her and studied the drawing. "How..." she whispered.

"I need to see David," Jane repeated.

"Yes, you do," Liz said, handing her back the notebook.

How was it?! I know this chapter was short, but they'll probably get longer as the plot gets revealed more. Review so I'll update! :D 3
